A strange occurrence happened on a bus. The bus was packed, it was a regular day, and the driver was riding along quietly. One of the passengers noticed something odd on the driver’s clothing and upon closer investigation spotted many insects crawling all over the driver’s neck and ears. The guy was astounded beyond comprehension by the fact that there were hundreds.

He started filming the whole thing and later uploaded the clip on Facebook. The passenger who videotaped the event, Primo Onipa, said on Facebook that the insects were lice and that he opted to embarrass the bus driver because he was so disturbed and disgusted by what had occurred. According to Primo, the driver smelt bad and didn’t seem to have bathed or changed his clothes in over a year.

Indeed, the unhappy motorist can be seen in the images seeming to have become used to these small parasites, which no longer appear to bother him. Following the release of the video on Facebook, online people voiced their fury, arguing that a guy with lice should not be in command of a bus transporting numerous passengers. Lice are small insects that feed on blood and dwell on the scalp. When they consume, they inject saliva into the skin, causing irritation.

The louse is about the size of a sesame seed and is gray/brown in color. Because of the ideal temperature conditions, the female secretes a substance that assures egg adhesion to the hair; eggs are attached to 3-4 millimeters of the hair’s base. It commonly occurs behind the ears and in the occipital area of the neck; itching may not be evident at first, during the early sickness. When the sores are scraped, the risk of superinfection increases.

Lice are difficult to detect because they are little and move swiftly. They may eventually be “caught” by covering the infected area with adhesive tape. Lice are one of the worst parasites for humans, which is detrimental to one’s self-esteem and self-image. According to experts, lice are not a sign of poverty or inadequate hygiene. Lice may live on even the cleanest of humans.

The primary problem is that they may spread a variety of ailments and are passed from person to person. Consider the following photographs of the bus driver, who has hundreds of lice crawling all over him: Unfortunately, the uploader removed the video.
